Chapter 258: Hiding in Tibet
Seeing that the county lord of Lingrong suddenly walked towards the screen, Cheng Jinzhi's heart tightened, for fear that she would find out that Cheng Xuan was hiding behind, so she hurriedly followed quietly. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
At this time, Cheng Xuan was originally standing behind the screen and listening to the conversation between the two, but now he saw that the screen in front of him attracted the attention of the county lord, and he immediately tensed up, took two steps back, and didn't even dare to make a sound.
Fortunately, the brocade silk used for this screen is of high quality, and if it is an ordinary silk yarn material, then when you get closer, you can see the figure standing behind you through this layer of tulle, and there is nowhere to hide.
"What is painted on this screen is Zhaojun's exit, right?"
The county lord of Lingrong stared at the picture scroll on the screen, raised his hand and gently stroked the vivid characters on it and the scenery outside the yellow sand, and the corners of his eyes overflowed with a trace of sadness.
"Although I can't learn the integrity of Wang Zhaojun who sacrifices his ego for the country, I feel that my current situation is the same as her, and she has to marry someone who has never been in a relationship and has never even met in person. ”
The county lord of Lingrong lowered the corners of his lips coyly, and his thoughts seemed to drift to the edge of the desert that was thousands of miles away, and he was silent for a long time before he turned around and looked at Cheng Jinzhi softly.
"That's why I envy you so much, you can find someone who is so good, so considerate, and truly beloved. This is a blessing that some people can't hope for in their lifetime. ”
"I should have ordered this screen to be put away today, and it was a bit more appropriate. ”
Cheng Jinzhi thought secretly, and his eyes fell on the pipa in Wang Zhaojun's hand, and her beautiful face and that, gradually, from her eyes that looked at the long road in front of her and were blinded by the wind and sand, she also saw the infinite sadness and reluctance.
Although it is rumored that Wang Zhaojun invited himself out of the fortress, in Cheng Jinzhi's opinion, how could a weak woman trapped in the deep palace have the ability to influence the diplomatic relations between the two countries?
What woman would be willing to leave her hometown and sacrifice her life's happiness to accompany a dying old man?
It's like when she was forced to marry a fool who was enough to make her scream and choose to die generously.
However, Wang Zhaojun at that time was a victim of politics, but what about the county lord of Lingrong in front of him?
If it weren't for the prince's party wanting to take the opportunity to win over and sit in power, she wouldn't have been forced to marry Cheng Xuan in a daze.
"I know that I will be unhappy if I am allowed to marry like this, what woman does not want to marry her beloved? ”
Cheng Jinzhi comforted softly, looking at the screen with a story in front of him, he couldn't help but feel a sigh of emotion in his heart.
"Compared to Zhaojun, the county lord is actually much luckier. At least you can stay in your homeland and have your family by your side, and my eldest brother is exactly the same age as you... But Sister Zhaojun is young and beautiful, but she has to accompany an elderly old man to live alone outside the Saiwai, not to mention anything else, just the climate outside the Saiwai, you are afraid that there is a lot of soil that you have not eaten, how miserable. ”
"When you think about it, it doesn't seem that bad. ”
Seeing that Cheng Jinzhi said something funny, the county lord of Lingrong raised a smile when he heard this, his mood seemed to improve, and he was a little embarrassed to say:
"Jin Zhi, I'm also a rare hypocrisy, let you see the joke. ”
"How can it be? We are all girls' families, if you are not hypocritical in front of me, do you still have to say this in front of your father?"
Cheng Jinzhi waved his hand boldly, and saw that the county lord of Lingrong nodded very approvingly: "You are right, if I say this in front of my father, he will definitely say that I am ignorant and that I am messing around, so I don't bother to tell him." ”
Seeing that the county lord of Lingrong regained his smile, Cheng Jinzhi breathed a sigh of relief, but a sense of guilt floated in his heart.
After all, she was obviously still persuading the county lord of Lingrong bitterly, but when she turned around, she was bent on hindering this marriage, which was indeed a bit of a villain.
But in the end, she still attributed all the reasons to Cheng Xuan, who was unruly and eager to escape marriage.
So he took advantage of the county lord's inattention, leaned over and aimed at the screen, and saw Cheng Xuan shrinking his body with a vigilant face, so he squeezed his eyes at him, raised his hand and made a gesture to reassure him.
Seeing Cheng Jinzhi's gesture, Cheng Xuan breathed a sigh of relief and made another gesture, which meant to let Cheng Jinzhi take the Lingrong County Lord out of this dangerous area as soon as possible, so as not to have an accident.
"Golden Branch, what's wrong? Is there anything special behind this screen?"
Unexpectedly, at this time, the lord of Lingrong County, who was originally admiring this "Zhaojun Out of the Plug", saw that Cheng Jinzhi had been looking behind the screen, and in addition to being curious, he actually followed over.
"No... It's nothing, I just saw some dust behind it, and I thought I'd find someone to clean it up later. ”
Cheng Jinzhi trembled between his eyebrows, hurriedly blocked in front of the county lord of Lingrong, and explained a few words casually, but saw the county lord of Lingrong suddenly come over. "Golden Branch, your earrings seem to have fallen off. ”
"Is it gone?"
Cheng Jinzhi reached out to touch the earlobes on both sides of him when he heard this, and found that the earlobe on the left was empty, and it was indeed a drop.
"If it falls to the ground, I'll help you find it. ”
The county lord of Lingrong looked around at the ground, and before Cheng Jinzhi could step forward to stop him, he had already walked behind the screen and looked for it carefully.
Just when Cheng Jinzhi thought that Cheng Xuan's whereabouts were about to be exposed, he turned his head to look, but saw that Cheng Xuan was no longer behind the screen.
However, she didn't breathe a sigh of relief because when she looked back again, she saw that Cheng Xuan had tiptoed around the front of the screen from behind.
I want to take advantage of the time when the Lord of Lingrong is looking for the other side, so that I can have a place to hide.
Cheng Jinzhi gave him a helpless look, and hurriedly said to the county lord of Lingrong: "County lord, maybe it didn't fall here, let's go look elsewhere." ”
"No, I remember you were wearing it when you were standing here talking to me, and it must have fallen here. ”
So, these three people were like peek-a-boo, circling around the screen again and again, causing Cheng Jinzhi to be frightened, looking left and right, for fear that one of them would accidentally bump into him.
"Here you are, I've found it. ”
Fortunately, after four or five turns, the county lord of Lingrong finally found the inlaid beaded earrings that Cheng Jinzhi had fallen at the seam between the painting screen and the rosewood frame.
She leaned down in surprise to pick up the earrings, got up and handed them back to Cheng Jinzhi.
"Thank you, let's go have some snacks, the tea is almost cold. ”
Cheng Jinzhi took the earrings, and without saying a word, he wanted to pull the county lord of Lingrong away.
However, there are always many surprises happening in the world.
For example, at this moment, under the already calm atmosphere, a sneezing sound suddenly sounded that could not be ignored.
